Switches Album Review: We Are Switches EP




The Switches We Are Switches EP is without a doubt catchy. It's that kind of upbeat music that courses through your brain with no intention of ever stopping.

The lyrics are also catchy. A bit too catchy. Their single, "Lay Down the Law," is a prime example, as the two-line chorus is repeated for a majority of the song. This kind of thing almost gives a feel of some sort of commercial that is trying to get you to remember a brand name or phone number.

Aside from redundancy, it's not bad. The Switches have an indie appeal, even though their music has more of a rock/pop sort of tone, emphasis on the pop.

From London, the Switches released their first full-length album, Heart Tuned to D.E.A.D., in the UK on April 23, 2007. The Switches are not yet available here in the U.S., but should be sometime early in 2008.
